elements that are not shown in the final picture : the FINGERS of the knot tyer !
in Ashley's picture you can find the FINGERS of the knot tyer
maybe that's best for showing tying method. though very few.
places the tail UNDER the continuation of the eye leg, in direct contact with the standing part s first curve
I think I got it. so, this is your knot theory? sounds interesting and reasonable. good lesson learned.
Ashley said left-hand bowline #1034.5 is distinctly inferior, without mention the reason.
maybe this is the reason.
in common bowline #1010, the tail is locked by the standing part s first curve,
and in left-hand bowline #1034.5, the tail is NOT locked by the standing part s first curve
so , if I change a left-hand bowline to an Eskimo bwl,
the tail is then naturally ocked by the standing part s first curve, no more dressing
as this pic,
if form the loop by connecting B and C at below(blue), and A is the SPart,
then it's a left-hand bowline.
the tail is NOT locked by the standing part?s first curve
if form the loop by connecting A and C at top (yellow) , and B is the SPart,
then it's an Eskimo bowline.
and the tail is naturally locked by the standing part's first curve
right?
